Support That Can Adapt as Needs Change

Many families begin with personal care or companion care because one or two daily routines have become harder. Over time, those needs may change.

Personal and companion care can provide valuable support with daily routines — not medical treatment — for older adults living with conditions such as:

  • Dementia, Alzheimer’s disease, or memory changes
  • Parkinson’s disease, neurological conditions, or movement disorders
  • Stroke recovery
  • COPD, diabetes, or other chronic conditions
  • Weakness, balance concerns, or fall risk
  • Recent rehab or hospital discharge
  • Limited mobility or wheelchair assistance needs

Our care providers are not licensed to perform medical or clinical tasks. If your loved one needs hands-on medical care — such as medication management, wound care, or ongoing clinical monitoring — our Skilled Nursing Care team can help, often as part of the same care plan.

You Do Not Have to Figure This Out Alone

Most families who call us are still trying to understand their options. They may know something has changed, but they may not know whether they need companion care, personal care, skilled nursing, overnight support, or something else.

That is exactly what we are here to help with.

Need care soon? Call to speak with a care team member. We’ll listen, answer your questions, and help you decide what comes next.

What Happens After You
Contact Us?

Call, and you’ll speak directly with a member of our care team — not a call center — who listens to what’s happening and what kind of help you’re looking for.

We assess your loved one’s medical needs, daily routine, and home safety. That’s what determines the right level of care — personal care, skilled nursing, or both.

Based on that plan, we match your loved one with a care provider or a licensed nurse suited to their specific needs and personality — never assigned at random.

Your care provider or nurse reviews the full care plan before their first visit, so nothing gets explained for the first time at your door.

Within 2–4 days of the first visit, our Client Satisfaction team checks in to confirm the care is the right fit and nothing has changed — then keeps checking in as needs do.

If your loved one’s needs change—a new diagnosis, a hospital stay, more hands-on help—your Staffing Coordinator adjusts the care plan rather than starting over.

Frequently Asked Questions

Personal and companion care are non-medical home care services that help older adults with daily activities, household routines, safety, and social support. A home care provider helps with bathing, dressing, meals, errands, transportation, and companionship so your loved one can stay safely and comfortably at home.

Companion care focuses on companionship, supervision, light housekeeping, meal prep, and getting to appointments. Personal care includes all of that plus hands-on help with bathing, dressing, toileting, and other daily physical needs. Many families start with one and add the other as needs change, and we can help you figure out which fits right now.

Yes, with medication reminders. Our care providers are not licensed to perform medical or clinical tasks. If your loved one needs medication management, wound care, or ongoing clinical monitoring, our skilled nursing care team can help, often as part of the same care plan.

skilled nursing care >

Yes. Personal and companion care support daily routines, safety, and companionship for people living with conditions such as dementia, Parkinson’s disease, stroke recovery, COPD, and diabetes. This is support with everyday life, not medical treatment. When clinical care is needed, skilled nursing can be added to the same plan.

home care for chronic and complex conditions >

Light housekeeping covers the everyday tasks that keep a home safe and comfortable: laundry, dishwashing, changing linens, general tidying, and vacuuming. It’s included as part of personal and companion care and isn’t billed as a separate service, so your care provider can help during the hours they’re already with your loved one.
